M-Mufasa?! H-how are you here?!

[he_watches_you]

In the same way you are here most likely, Brother.

[i_killedmufasa]

That's...not quite what I meant...

[he_watches_you]

Then you should elaborate.

[cowardly_hero]

... you.

[he_watches_you]

Have we met?

[cowardly_hero]

Ah- no. I mean, I don't think so.

[he_watches_you]

I don't think so either. What is your name?

[Voice]

[shout_geronimo]

[he_watches_you]

[Voice]

[he_watches_you]

[he_watches_you]

Yes, I am. I do not deny that.

[scaronhisface]

...You again...

[he_watches_you]

...again? Have you seen me before?

[scaronhisface]

...Of course you don't remember...

Sorry...must've had you mixed up with someone else.

[Kovu sounds kind of...hostile.]

[he_watches_you]

I don't see how someone could make that mistake. [Mufasa's voice is deep and booming - as usual. Hello, voice of God. But he does sound relatively calm. He is still worried about Simba. Kovu might hear him pacing restlessly as he talks.]

There is only one king.
